Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour

  • 1/2 cup low sodium beef broth (without onion powder)

  • 1 tablespoon molasses

  • 1 egg

  • Icing
  • Plain yogurt

  • Frozen cranberries for noses

Directions

  • Combine all ingredients in large mixing bowl and mix until dough forms. Dough should be a little sticky but workable.
  • Lightly flour counter and roll out dough. Use desired cut outs. I used a gingerbread person cut out and just turn the cookies upside down to make reindeer heads.
  • Bake in preheated 350f oven for 30 mins.
  • Remove from oven, let pan cool 5 mins then remove cookies and let cool on a wire rack.
  • While the treats are cooling down add some plain yogurt to a squeeze bottle or piping bag.
  • Decorate cookies as shown or however you’d like. I added frozen cranberries as noses.

Notes

  • ** yogurt does not harden like regular royal icing usually used to decorate cookies so don’t try to stack them.
  • **Store covered in fridge for up to one week.
  • Disclaimer: Please always consult your animal nutritionist or veterinarian for any questions/concerns or before changing anything in your pets diet. I am not – nor do I claim to be, an animal nutritionist. I’m just a dog mom sharing fun recipes that are (mostly) healthier than store bought options. I hope you’ll find one your dog loves and make it often. Thanks for being here!
